Abstract
The research titled "The Potential of Radish Leaves (Raphanus sativus) Extract as Shoe Polish" aims to investigate the feasibility of utilizing radish leaf extract as an alternative shoe polish. Conventional shoe polishes available in the market often contain hazardous chemicals that pose potential risks to human health and the environment. This study focuses on extracting radish leaves to formulate a natural shoe polish that is both safe for users and environmentally friendly. The study evaluates the physical attributes of the radish leaf shoe polish before application, such as melting point and pH, as well as post-application aspects including odor, texture, consistency, and color. Furthermore, the research assesses the effectiveness of the shoe polish in terms of glossiness, water repellency, and dust resistance. By combining radish leaves, coconut oil, soy wax, Gumamela, and calamansi, the researchers have successfully developed a shoe care product that not only enhances the appearance of leather shoes but also prioritizes environmental well-being. The outcomes of this research have the potential to contribute to the advancement of eco-friendly shoe polishes that offer efficient performance while minimizing the reliance on harmful chemicals.
